In a nationwide class action lawsuit, plaintiffs allege that a prominent Miami nightclub, Diskolab, violated federal text messaging law under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). The claims came in response to a text message campaign that began on January 8, 2019. The case remains in the pleading stages of the proceedings in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida.

According to the allegations, Diskolab violated the TCPA by
sending out advertisements by text without gaining the consent of the
recipients. The text messages were allegedly sent en masse through an automatic telephone dialing system or ATDS.
This became apparent to the plaintiff in the case due to the general/impersonal
nature of the message’s content promoting the commercial availability of
tickets to the club. While the plaintiff only claims to have received a small
number of text messages, they hope to represent a nationwide class of
individuals who all received texts from the club in the last four years through
an ATDS.

TCPA Text Messaging
and Maintaining Compliance:

There has been a significant increase of legal interest in
popular text message market campaigns in recent years. The class action lawsuit
filed against Diskolab is just another in the string of TCPA text message
lawsuits and further proof that companies attempting to reach potential
customers on their cell phones must be vigilant in maintaining compliance with
applicable state and federal telemarketing laws in all their telemarketing
practices and procedures.
